 Someone do me a favour and remind me on Friday. I'm bound to forget.

 As above. Cheers.

 Yeah I saw the trailer for this. Looks like a fair bit about Beck Weathers is gonna be on this.
Also some of those gratuitous shots of dead people...Probably start the arguement going again.
|
 |
 Don't forget to remind me!
|
 |
 And me!

 Richard, Si:
There's a TV prog on tonight about Everest, you might want to watch it...
|
 |
 SIIIIIIIIII!
RIIIIIIIIIIIIIICHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARD!
Telly!
|
 |
 Thanks ma!
Can someone ALSO programme my video, cos I'm going out for a beer or two tonight (like THATS unusual) and WILL forget...
Cheers.

 Yeah you'll forget to tape it and then forget to watch it.
|
 |
 How can you forget to watch it if you haven't taped it in the first place? I suppose you could forget to go over to where the video tapes are kept and go 'oh no! I forgot to tape it'.
|
 |
 But for that to work you'd have to forget that you'd forgotten to tape it but remember that you wanted to watch it.
|
 |
 Thanks. There is also a programme on early next week about Leo Holding (young talanted rock climber with a brocken foot thing). BBC1 late on Tuesday me thinks.
|
 |
 Methinks the video will be set on that one too!
|
 |
 Is a brocken foot like a Brocken Spectre?
Sorry (small voice).
|
 |
 Very similar indeed, Jeanie.
What did everyone think of the prog? Over-judgemental in my view...in a Tonight with Trevor Mcdonut sort of way.
But....you wouldn't catch me climbing anything with that South African woman. A touch hard faced for my liking.
I know. Pot, kettle, black.
|
 |
 Watch it AND taped it too.
Well I thought that the programme was gonna be "nice" to the South Africans, but in the end they weren't!
All in all a fairly decent programme though. OK so maybe not as balanced as some, but hey it could have been worse.
|
 |
 well that was suitably channel 5 dramatic. for those who forgot, you didn't miss much. a lot of atmospheric music, overload of blurry reconstructions and a pile of people sat in living rooms talking. really encouraged you to go climb it...
and only one (real) body. thank god.
|
 |
 Yep, thanks for sparing us the bodies.
I think they overstated the inexperience thing. 'Never been over 6000, 7000 7500 metres' or whatever. I don't think people go to Everest without Knowing what they are biting off.
The Oxygen thing made me laugh. Comparing Matt D running out of oxygen with someone climbing without is complete boylocks.
But still better than Eastenders.
|
 |
 Still have a bad feeling about that SA girl though.
|
 |
 Anyway, time for bed.
